Structural and connectivity changes after botulinum neurotoxin therapy in blepharospasmus and hemifacial spasm
Objective: The two primary objectives of this study were to investigate the structural grey matter changes and connectivity differences between patients with BEB and HFS…Subtle sensory abnormalities in patients with segmental and cervical dystonia detected by quantitative sensory testing
Objective: The aim of this study was to investigate whether sensory abnormalities in patients with primary dystonia are related to age and to the distribution…Atypical presentation of psychogenic movement disorder with jaw-opening dystonia: Two cases reports
Objective: Our aim is to report atypical types of psychogenic movement disorder presenting jaw-opening dystonia. Background: Jaw-opening dystonia is a rare condition, and only a…Direct comparisons for botulinum neurotoxins in movement disorders
Objective: To review clinical trials directly comparing botulinum neurotoxins (BoNT) for the treatment of movement disorders. To assess efficacy and safety from head-to-head clinical trials.…Mind the gap: Temporal discrimination and cervical dystonia
Objective: To deconstruct the temporal discrimination threshold (TDT) into its constituent parts. Background: The TDT, the shortest detectable interval between two stimuli, has repeatedly been…Features of the quality of life and related disorders in patients with focal dystonia
Objective: To evaluate the features of the quality of life (QOL) and related disorders in patients with focal dystonia (FD). Background: Studying neuropsychological disorders is…Long-term effects of pallidal DBS in patients with primary dystonia
Objective: Deep brain stimulation (DBS) of the globus pallidus internus (GPi) is an effective treatment for medically refractory dystonia and reduces not only motor impairment…White matter connectome in patients with genetic dystonia
Objective: This study investigated structural neural pathways in clinically manifesting and non-manifesting individuals with several dystonia (DYT) genotypes using a network approach. Background: DYT has…Structural and functional brain network alterations in psychogenic dystonia
Objective: The aim of this study is to explore the brain structural and functional MRI abnormalities in psychogenic dystonia patients (pDYT). Background: Psychogenic movement disorders…Cervical dystonia preceding Parkinson´s disease – Continuum – coincidence or epiphenomenon–Report of 3 cases
Objective: To report 3 cases with cervical dystonia and dystonic hand tremor who developed Parkinson´s disease (PD) years to decades later and to discuss if…
